Mumbai, Mar 4 (Agencies) : A 27-year-old model was arrested at the Sahar International Airport in Mumbai after she joked about her friend carrying a bomb. The incident took place at the airport's T2 on Thursday night.
Kanchan Thakur was on her way to board a plane to Delhi. After passing the security check at the boarding gate, Thakur told the flight security guard that there was a bomb in her friend's bag, who was right behind her.
